Let$D$be a strictly pseudoconvex domain in$C$^{$n$}. We prove that $$\bar \partial u = \phi , \phi $$ , ϕ a $$\bar \partial $$ (0,1)-form, admits solutions in$L$^{$p$}(∂$D$), 1≤$p$<∞ and in BMO, under certain Wolff type conditions of ϕ. Some such results (for 1<$p$<∞) have previously been obtained by Amar in the ball, but under slightly stronger hypotheses. As a corollary we obtain a$H$^{$p$}-corona result for two generators.

In this paper, we study the shape of the min-max minimal hypersurface produced by Almgren-Pitts in F. Almgren, and J. Pitts, corresponding to the fundamental class of a Riemannian manifold $(M^{n+1}, g)$of positive Ricci curvature with 2 ≤ n ≤ 6. We characterize the Morse index, volume and multiplicity of this min-max hypersurface. In particular, we show that the min-max hypersurface is either orientable and of index one, or is a double cover of a non-orientable minimal hypersurface with least area among all closed embedded minimal hypersurfaces.

We develop foundational theory for the Laplacian flow for closed G2 structures which will be essential for future study. (1). We prove Shi-type derivative estimates for the Riemann curvature tensor Rm and torsion tensor T along the flow, i.e. that a bound on Λ(x,t)=(|∇T(x,t)|^2g(t)+|Rm(x,t)|^2g(t))^{1/2} will imply bounds on all covariant derivatives of Rm and T. (2). We show that Λ(x,t) will blow up at a finite-time singularity, so the flow will exist as long as Λ(x,t) remains bounded. (3). We give a new proof of forward uniqueness and prove backward uniqueness of the flow, and give some applications. (4). We prove a compactness theorem for the flow and use it to strengthen our long time existence result from (2) to show that the flow will exist as long as the velocity of the flow remains bounded. (5). Finally, we study soliton solutions of the Laplacian flow.
